At the morning court, Bei Lingyao happily informed all the ministers of the good news that Concubine Zhuang had safely given birth to twins, a boy and a girl.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty. May God bless Great Xia. Long live the Emperor."
Regardless of what some people think at this moment, most of the ministers in the court are still happy that the emperor has a successor.
The royal family could be said to be the most disappointed. They were just waiting for Emperor Jiahe to turn 30 so that they could immediately propose adoption.
But five years after the loss of his son, the 29-year-old Emperor Jiahe finally had another child, and all their hopes were dashed.
At this time, the Yang family behind Concubine Shu and the Wang family behind the Queen's family wanted to seize the child more and more.
The Wang family felt that as long as Concubine Zhuang passed away, the twins would be raised by the Queen, and the Queen was the only legitimate mother in the palace who was most qualified.
The Yang family felt that since Concubine Zhuang was gone, the twins would be raised by the Empress Dowager first, and then the Empress would be deposed for plotting to murder the royal heir.
If the Empress Dowager falls ill again, the twins, a boy and a girl, will be raised by Concubine Shu, and Concubine Shu will be made the empress, which will be legitimate.
Bei Lingyao had no idea what the two families were thinking. Although she had spiritual awareness, she could not control what others thought.
However, when her spiritual consciousness reached Kunning Palace, the queen kept saying that her children had been reincarnated, and that the twins were the eldest prince and princess.
Bei Lingyao was speechless.
The Queen's children are not twins, a boy and a girl. She is so desperate for a son or a daughter that she has developed delusions.
After the court session, Bei Lingyao went to the imperial study, and Zhang De came forward with a memorial.
"Your Majesty, this is a memorial submitted by the Ministry of Personnel regarding the assessment and promotion of Empress Zhuang's great-grandfather."
Bei Lingyao paused, took the memorial and took a look.
Prefect An has not even completed his three-year term, and he is trying to get promoted to the capital.
I'm dreaming.
Fortunately, she is now in Emperor Jiahe's body. If it were the case, Emperor Jiahe might agree. Maybe he would transfer Prefect An to Beijing to promote her and give her a surprise.
After all, Bei Lingyao has no one in the officialdom, and Prefect An is the uncle of that scumbag grandfather, that is, his great-grandfather.
If they serve as officials in the court, Concubine Zhuang and the twins will also have helpers in official circles.
But Bei Lingyao doesn't need the An family's support.
Although the Bei family was granted the title of earl, they did not enter the officialdom, but instead engaged in business in accordance with the emperor's order.
Almost all the concubines had connections in the court, but Bei Lingyao did not.
No one in the Bei family holds an official position.
Bei Lingyao was not worried about this.
Her child was the emperor's only son.
The emperor was the biggest supporter of the three of them, mother and son.
Not to mention that she also has an exchange card that can be used at any time.
"Prefect An has no achievements and his term has not yet been completed. He still needs to be tempered."
Bei Lingyao had the memorial sent back to the Ministry of Personnel with her original words.
He also ordered the Black Xuan Guards to conduct a thorough investigation of Prefect An and the Jia family.
Zhang De's heart trembled. There was no doubt that the emperor doted on Concubine Zhuang, not to mention that he now had a pair of twins, the fourth prince and the fourth princess.
That is the problem of Prefect An of the An family.
After returning to Yongshou Palace, Bei Lingyao told Emperor Jiahe what happened in the morning court.
Emperor Jiahe is having a hard time now. He has to review memorials while recuperating after giving birth.
Bei Lingyao originally wanted to help him share the work, but if she could even imitate Emperor Jiahe's handwriting, Emperor Jiahe would have to think twice even if he was a saint.
After all, the emperor was suspicious and jealous by nature. It was difficult for him to accept the exchange. Bei Lingyao could also use his body and voice exactly the same, so even people as close as the empress dowager and Zhang De could not discover it.
If even the handwriting is the same, it will only increase Emperor Jiahe's sense of crisis.
So Bei Lingyao ignored Emperor Jiahe who was in confinement and placed the memorial in front of her: Those who are capable should work harder, no matter how hard it is.
Emperor Jiahe was in great pain, very much in pain.
Holding Bei Lingyao's body, she had just given birth and was not only weak, but also had chest pain, pain in her lower body, and lochia.
Even though he was happy to have a son and a successor, he couldn't ignore the discomfort in his body.
I can’t take a bath, wash my hair, or blow dry my hair, and my food is bland and tasteless…
It was only the first day after giving birth, and Emperor Jiahe was already extremely irritable and unbearable.
Bei Lingyao understood, and she tried her best to take care of the "mother's" emotions. Emperor Jiahe was still easy to coax.
At this time, the Empress Dowager had already returned to the Cining Palace.
She was content with having grandchildren, so she ordered her concubines to copy scriptures to pray for the twins, hoping that they would grow up safely.
The Queen Mother now wants to find something for the concubines to do so that they won't all stare at the Yongshou Palace and do something unreasonable.
"Has the Imperial Observatory sent us the names of the princes and princesses?"
Emperor Jiahe asked.
"There is a memorial from the Imperial Observatory. Your Majesty can take a look at it."
Bei Lingyao took out the top memorial and handed it to Emperor Jiahe.
Emperor Jiahe opened it and paused.
Mu Yao: Wen Zhao Wu Mu, Yao Feng and Shun Yu
Yucheng: majestic and imposing, blessed by heaven
…
"Yucheng is a good name, but my uncle is Yang Chengye, and your father, Uncle Chunyi, is Bei Chengye. The word 'Cheng' is not suitable. So let's use Muyao, Wenzhaowumu, Yaofengshunyu, Jingmuyao."
Emperor Jiahe decided on the name of the fourth prince.
Bei Lingyao nodded. These names were all good and she had no objection.
Emperor Jiahe looked down at his daughter's name.
"Yao'er will decide the name of the fourth princess."
Bei Lingyao was not polite and said immediately, "Qiantong, the vegetation is lush and full of vitality. She is energetic and enthusiastic, cheerful and optimistic, smart and clever, and has a bright future."
"Okay, let's call it Qiantong, Jing Qiantong, a good name. Three days after the bathing, I will appoint the Fourth Prince as the Crown Prince, and Qiantong will be named Princess Yu'an, which means a thousand mountains and spiritual lands, peace and joy."
